Between her biological systems engineering research and her job as assistant grower at Gotham Greens, aka her “living lab,” master's student Grace Algeo is focused on developing practical tools that support growers, strengthen sustainability efforts and point toward a more resilient future for agriculture.
AI is fueling a data center boom, raising questions about the current and future effects of data centers on people and the planet. Two UC Davis researchers address some of the most pressing questions about data centers, energy and potential solutions, from smarter server memory to water-saving cooling systems.
A dynamic digital twin designed by researchers at UC Davis was launched into Earth’s orbit on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. The payload is expected to send data about the satellite’s state of health over the next month.
What if your next STEM teacher were an AI agent in virtual reality? UC Davis computer scientist Michael Neff combines movement science, gesture modeling and deep learning to create lifelike digital instructors — paving the way for more human embodied learning experiences.
The Bezos Earth Fund has announced a $2 million grant to the University California, Davis, the American Heart Association and other partners to advance “Swap it Smart” as part of its AI for Climate & Nature Grand Challenge.
At the inaugural AI Innovation Showcase and Prem Jain Symposium, hosted by the UC Davis College of Engineering, faculty, students, alumni and industry partners explored cutting-edge research, startups and programs, emphasizing the importance of collaboration to advance AI.
ResearchQuest.ai is a new AI agent that scours academic papers for anything related to the query. The new tool, built by student researchers through E-SEARCH, could cut down a literature review from months to minutes.
With a quick leaf scan, the AI-powered Leaf Monitor delivers real-time nutrient insights for crops. By replacing weeks-long lab tests, the new tool, developed by UC Davis engineers, can help farmers boost yields, cut fertilizer waste and manage fields with precision and sustainability.
In the last few years, the quest to build so-called Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), an undefined system which seemingly can do any task under any circumstance, has captured the public's imagination.
UC Davis engineering students are taking their research to orbit, building an AI-powered digital twin to track satellite battery health. The project blends teamwork, ingenuity and space-tested problem-solving, with applications reaching far beyond Earth.
